Invitation for audition

Based on your digital portfolio in Osiris Application, the admissions committee decides whether you will be invited for an audition at Codarts. The result of the preselection will be send out by the Administrative Service Center (ASC) per email.

The audition
The content of the audition reflects the requirements that the programme and subsequent professional practice will impose on the students.
During the audition, your aptitude, knowledge, skills and developability will be tested for the course of study you plan to follow. The audition consists of two different parts:

Practical part
During the audition we will test your talent, knowledge, skills and development possibilities for the study programme you intend to follow. 

Research proposal
We will conduct an online interview (via Zoom) to discuss your research proposal. 

Results of the audition
The management of the programme will determine together with the admissions committee whether you can be admitted. Codarts has a limited number of study places available, so it may take some time before you will receive an email saying whether you have been admitted or not.

Placement or waiting list
Codarts admits only a limited number of students. If the maximum number of students has been reached, candidates may be placed on a waiting list. Placed candidates are requested to inform Codarts within one month after placement whether they will actually take the course.
